AI is moving fast, and most sustainability teams are still deciding what that means for their own work. This member session opens with PSC’s new AI Usage Policy and member toolkit, a practical starting point for using these tools responsibly, then hands off to guest speaker Rochelle March, founder of PPWA (a sustainable innovation studio) and professor of Applied AI for Sustainable Business, for a wider look at where AI actually stands today.
We’ll cover the questions sustainability professionals are asking most, from data privacy to AI’s own environmental footprint, and how to think about AI’s net impact: the emissions it uses versus the bigger impact it can help your team make. Expect practical frameworks you can use right away and real examples from the field.
This session is built for PSC members of every size and type, whether you’re just getting started with AI or already putting it to work. Includes live Q&A.
